Abstract: This executive summary provides key findings from the Afterschool Alliance's fifth edition of "America After 3PM" survey, which provides insights about children and families during the hours of 3 to 6 p.m., when schools let out and many parents are working. The latest findings offer a comprehensive look at the learning opportunities programs offer, how youth and families are benefiting, and the barriers that keep so many from participating. It confirms the enormous demand for programs: Of the nearly 30 million youth whose parents want afterschool programs, more than 3 in 4 are missing out. That is 22.6 million children whose parents would enroll them if a program were available. The full report is the first large-scale report on afterschool since the pandemic. It reflects 20 years of data, capturing parents' views in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., and includes new questions reflecting economic and societal changes, such as the increase in remote and hybrid work, the effect of inflation on households' after school options, and growing concerns about children's well-being.
